Every baby boomer has to confront it: their changing midlife sex lives. Now, Gail Belsky provides an unfailingly honest anthology that is incredibly varied, wickedly funny, shockingly explicit and surprisingly sweet about life in the bedroom after 40.

Topics include an unexpected second marriage to a much younger man, ruminations on temptations of neighbourhood yummy mummies, the realisation that a sexy car is the key to injecting new life into a marriage, the confession to an adulterous affair and the shattering emotional aftermath and a his - and her - perspective on the changes in a long-term partnership - the good, the bad and the ugly. It's all here on the journey 'over the hill and between the sheets'.
